If you do not know the sender, and they are saying that you won in a contest of some kind that you do not remember entering, then you can be sure that there is a scam involved.
They will either want you to send money to cover taxes, shipping, fees, or the like, or want you to send bank account information so that they can "transfer your winnings to you" They really want to take money out of your account, and transfer it to them.
If you really won a lot of money, you would not be notified by Email!!
Sorry!!

If they asked you to click on a link and you did, you might have welcomed some computer virus. If they asked for your credit card number, they'll just use them for themselves. If they asked you to go to an unknown location, they'll just try to rob you. Don't risk your own safety for anything online. Stay safe. Check up the link below..... (nope this answer is not a scam)

If you haven't actually entered something yourself then none of them are true. I have supposedly won around 300 million in the past few weeks...I received two emails telling me I had won a lottery today...not one of them is true.
